--- Comment #2 from Jörg Höhle hoehle@users.sourceforge.net 2009-03-24 17:09:07 --- I'm glad to hear that you got it to run. This gives hope. We are talking about the retail version, not the demo, aren't we? Using Ubuntu Hardy and Intrepid Compiled wine myself (like I did for the last 2 years), running git releases off the compiled tree (binary in ~/src/wine/wine) and running 1.0.1 off a make prefix=/... install-lib (binary is .../wine-1.0.1/bin/wine). Works well for ~30 applications. Using the Intel Xorg driver
CD-ROM: yes (now), yes and yes. Actually, I just reinstalled the game (always did a full install, this time into the default directory), and the crash persists.
Prior to the intro picture, the application asks whether to use "Software-Rasterung" or "DirectDraw HAL" (default). I always choose the latter, as the former produces a crash in the graphics components (reproducable in the demo) -- that's another issue. BTW, the demo runs on this machine (ignoring bug #17234).
